Everything on the Internet is true, right? What can Tik Tok (and social media) teach us about getting out of debt?  How much of the advice is legitimate and how much is, shall we say, a bit "out there"? On this week's episode of the Crushing Debt Podccast, Shawn & George watch (or listen to) Tik Tok videos from influencers who are trying to help people get out of debt. We'll then comment on the good, the bad, and the ugly of the advice given. As with any social media platform, you have to do your own due diligence and utilize strategies that will work for you.

“I've given myself the title of ‘cat with nine lives.'” In this inspiring episode of the Project Purple Podcast, host Dino Verrelli talks with Toni Bravo, a pancreatic cancer survivor and student at the University of Notre Dame, to share her incredible cancer journey. Toni opens up about the shocking moment she was diagnosed during her junior year of college. The diagnosis came after an accident where she was hit by a car in a crash. Despite an initial CT scan missing the tumor, Toni's instincts told her something was wrong. Two months later, a follow-up CT scan revealed the truth. Toni reflects on how her life changed when she received the diagnosis alone, away from home. Her personal mantras, “Everything happens for a reason” and “Focus on the things you can control,” helped her navigate the challenges she faced. “I've always looked at everything as a redirection of my life. I've always had a pretty optimistic outlook,” she says. Drawing on childhood lessons, like adaptability, Toni shares how her experience taught her to cherish time. Throughout the conversation, Toni talks about the impact cancer had on her life as a young adult, processing the surgery to remove the tumor, how it changed her college career, grappling with mortality at just 20 years old, and finding peace. Her story is a powerful testament to hope, resilience, and strength. Subscribe to the Project Purple Podcast for more powerful stories from the pancreatic cancer community.

Have you been paying your Student Loans? Have you been waiting on forgiveness of your Student Loans? Recently, the Department of Education has begun collection efforts for Student Loan borrowers behind on their payments, who have not repaid their debts or entered into some type of workout plan regarding their Student Loan debts. The government estimates that there are 6.4 million Student Loan borrowers between the ages of 50 - 60, that owe a combined $282 Billion - or $46,000 per borrower. For some history or background, Student Loan payments paused during the COVID pandemic. But in October 2023, Student Loan payments resumed (subject to any workout plan negotiated with the Department of Education).  Now, the government is seeking collection against any defaulted Student Loans, and they have as tools, the authority, under certain circumstances, to: (1) garnish wages, (2) intercept and retain tax refunds, and (3) intercept and retain social security payments. Unfortunately, Student Loans are still largely non-dischargeable under Bankruptcy Law, although there have been some in-roads. So how can you manage?  There are still options available, including: Income-Driven Repayment. Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) Modification You can also plan ahead for the costs of Education, by researching the different borrowing programs, Grants, 529 (and similar) plans.

In this JCO Article Insights episode, host Jospeh Mathew summaries Pancreatic Adenocarcinoma: Long-Term Outcomes of Adjuvant Therapy in the ESPAC4 Phase III Trial, by Palmer, et al published December 5, 2024. Transcript Joseph Matthew: Hello and welcome to the Journal of Clinical Oncology Article Insights. I'm your host, Joseph Matthew, and today we will be discussing the article "Long-Term Survival in Resected Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma with Adjuvant Gemcitabine plus Capecitabine Compared to Modified FOLFIRINOX from the ESPAC-4 and the PRODIGE 24 Trials" by Dr. Palmer et al. To summarize the relevant evidence, the ESPAC-4 was a European phase 3 multicenter randomized clinical trial published in 2017 comparing adjuvant gemcitabine and capecitabine (GemCap) with gemcitabine monotherapy following macroscopic margin-negative resections for operable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The trial had included non-metastatic patients aged 18 years or older, World Health Organization (WHO) performance scores of 2 or less, creatinine clearance of at least 50 mL/min, and a life expectancy of over three months who had not received any prior anticancer treatment. Patients who had undergone R2 resections were selectively excluded. Eligible participants were randomized 1:1 within 12 weeks of pancreatectomy to one of the two treatment arms, with chemotherapy initiated within two weeks from the date of randomization. The regimens involved six cycles, each lasting four weeks, for an overall duration of 24 weeks. In the monotherapy arm, gemcitabine dosed at 1 g/m² was given as an intravenous infusion once a week for three weeks, followed by one week off. In the GemCap arm, capecitabine dosed at 1660 mg/m² was added to gemcitabine, given daily for three weeks, followed by one week off. Patients were followed up every three months, with the primary endpoint being overall survival (OS). The study showed that at a median follow-up of 43.2 months, GemCap was associated with a significantly longer OS than gemcitabine alone. Subsequently, in 2018, the Phase 3 randomized PRODIGE 24 trial was conducted in centers across France and Canada, comparing adjuvant modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) with gemcitabine in a similar subset of patients with resected PDAC and reported longer OS with the mFOLFIRINOX regimen. This study, however, had more restrictive eligibility criteria when compared to ESPAC-4, including patients aged under 80 years, WHO performance status of 0 or 1, with no significant cardiovascular disease, and a postoperative serum CA 19-9 of less than 180 U/mL. There was hence a subset of ESPAC-4 patients who did not meet the eligibility criteria for mFOLFIRINOX as set by the PRODIGE 24. The present study was conducted to estimate the overall 5-year survival rates for patients of ESPAC-4 receiving GemCap and gemcitabine, further stratifying survival in either arm according to the status of the surgical margins (R status) and the resected nodes (N status), and also to investigate whether GemCap retained a survival benefit over gemcitabine in PRODIGE 24-ineligible patients. A total of 732 patients, evenly distributed between both arms, were followed up for a median period of 104 months. Adjuvant GemCap was found to retain its survival advantage over gemcitabine, with a significantly longer median OS of 31.6 months when compared to 28.4 months with gemcitabine alone. Further subgroup analysis was performed with reference to the resection margins and the nodal status. As a reminder, in the ESPAC-4 trial, 60% of patients were found to have microscopically positive margins (an R1 resection), and 80% were node-positive. The difference in survival was greater in patients undergoing microscopic margin-negative resections (R0) who experienced a median OS of 49.9 months with GemCap when compared to 32.2 months with gemcitabine. Node-negative patients also had a significantly greater 5-year OS rate with GemCap of 59% versus 53% with gemcitabine monotherapy. However, it is important to note that no significant difference in survival outcomes was observed in margin-positive (R1) or node-positive patients in the two arms. The investigators also evaluated GemCap in the subgroup of 193 patients (comprising 26.4% of the ESPAC-4 cohort) who were not considered to have met the eligibility criteria for PRODIGE 24. The survival benefit of combination therapy was retained in this group, with patients receiving GemCap experiencing a median survival of 25.9 months compared to 20.7 months with adjuvant gemcitabine. Although cross-trial comparisons have limited validity, good agreement was noted in adverse grade 3 or greater toxicity associated with the control gemcitabine arms of ESPAC-4 and PRODIGE 24, serving as the basis for a qualitative comparison of toxicities between mFOLFIRINOX and GemCap. Neutropenia was more prevalent in the GemCap arm, affecting 40.8% of patients compared to 28.4% with mFOLFIRINOX. However, granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) was administered to 62.2% of patients in PRODIGE 24. Palmar-plantar erythrodysesthesia (PPE) was also more prevalent with GemCap. Patients on mFOLFIRINOX were more likely to observe grade 3 or greater fatigue, diarrhea, nausea and vomiting, sensory peripheral neuropathy, and paresthesias. The investigators concluded that GemCap was the standard adjuvant treatment for patients with PDAC undergoing an upfront resection who were not feasible for mFOLFIRINOX. Further exploratory analysis revealed that patients under the age of 70 who had undergone a microscopic margin-negative (R0) resection for node-negative PDAC were likely to derive an OS benefit from the addition of capecitabine to gemcitabine in the adjuvant setting. In contrast, mFOLFIRINOX would be more effective than gemcitabine in patients with positive margins (R1) or involved nodes, as per the PRODIGE 24 trial.

Cohort study evaluated the use of ablative radiation therapy (A-RT) as a noninvasive alternative to surgery in 25 patients with technically resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) who were ineligible for surgery due to comorbidities. Conducted at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center between 2016 and 2022, the study found that A-RT, delivered with high precision and dose intensity, provided promising local control and overall survival, with a 2-year OS rate of 43.7% and manageable toxicity. Despite advanced age, poor performance status, and limited chemotherapy use in the cohort, outcomes suggest A-RT may be a viable local therapy for select patients with resectable PDAC, warranting further prospective investigation.Link to Arcticlehttps://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaoncology/article-abstract/2832566

Spring is when many people spring clean their home. But how many of us Spring Clean our finances? How many of us declutter our debt? April is also Financial Literacy Month, and for most of the Country April is the month when income tax returns are due.  Did you file on time, or did you file for an extension? On this week's episode, Shawn & George talk about how to spring clean your debt, which is very similar to spring cleaning your home: (1) declutter - what expenses can you reduce or eliminate, (2) pick your cleaning tools - how do you want to eliminate debt, through consolidation, avalanche, snowball, or something else, and (3) stay organized - it's easier to remain debt free if you remain organized.

Pancreatic cancer is one of the deadliest types of cancer. It's known as the “silent killer” because, by the time you know you have it, it's often too late. Pay attention to these 7 early warning signs of pancreatic cancer.1. Sudden unexpected weight lossA problem with the pancreas can affect digestion and appetite, which can cause you to lose weight unexpectedly. 2. Abdominal painThis is typically dull, persistent pain that can radiate to the left shoulder. Sometimes, it shows up as radiating pain in the belly button that extends into the spine and often feels worse after eating. 3. Jaundice This is characterized by yellowing of the whites of the eyes and rust-colored urine caused by bile backing up into the blood. TUDCA can be a good remedy for this! Take two on an empty stomach twice a day to open the bile ducts. 4. Chronic diarrhea Most pancreatic cancer affects the part of the pancreas that is responsible for digestive enzymes, which can often lead to chronic diarrhea. 5. Diabetes A tumor in the pancreas can disrupt the cells that produce insulin, contributing to diabetes. 6. Feeling full quickly Pancreatic cancer can cause you to feel full and bloated even If you've hardly had anything to eat.7. Persistent fatigue This can be described as overwhelming, chronic fatigue that doesn't improve with more sleep.Don't consume sugar if you have pancreatic cancer!Risk factors for pancreatic cancer include the following:•Smoking tobacco •Type 2 diabetes •Obesity •Alcohol consumption•Genetic factors•Vitamin D deficiency Vitamin D may help shrink cancer and enhance the immune system's ability to fight cancer.To help prevent pancreatic cancer:•Ensure you're getting enough sleep •Reduce stress•Exercise •Practice intermittent fasting Incorporating anti-cancer foods such as cruciferous vegetables, green tea, garlic, and berberine may help.

How does your financial life change when you are childfree? What is the difference between FIRE and FILE? How does your investing change when you are childfree? How does childfree impact your estate planning and long-term financial goals change? How often have you asked a newlywed couple, "so when are you having kids?" How often have you asked a couple married long-term, "any plans for kids soon?"  There is a growing number of married couples who are childfree, sometimes for medical reasons, and sometimes by voluntary choice. How can people with kids be supportive of their friends who have chosen (voluntarily or involuntarily) to live a childfree life. On this week's episode of the Crushing Debt Podcast, Shawn and George interview Jay Zigmont, PhD, MFA, CFP. Dr. Jay and his wife are childfree, and it has profoundly shaped how they approach their finances. When Dr. Jay searched for financial advice, he realized that most of it assumes you have kids, which didn't align with their goals. That's why he founded Childfree Wealth®—to offer financial planning tailored specifically to the unique needs of the childfree community. You can reach Dr. Jay at his website, www.childfreewealth.com, and check out his book, The Childfree Guide to Life & Money, available on the website and wherever your favorite books are sold.

In this heartfelt episode of the Project Purple Podcast, host Dino Verrelli sits down with Mark Wade, a stage III pancreatic cancer survivor, to share his deeply personal journey from diagnosis to remission. Mark opens up about the shock of his diagnosis in April 2021, the whirlwind of chemotherapy and radiation, and undergoing a Whipple procedure later that year. Mark reflects on the emotional toll of treatment and the unexpected challenges that came after, including anxiety and the difficulty of adjusting to life post-treatment. He shares how therapy helped him process his experience and why he believes in the importance of speaking honestly about mental health during and after cancer. Throughout the conversation, Mark also discusses the impact of his diagnosis on his career in education and the powerful support he received from colleagues, friends, and his wife. His story is one of vulnerability, resilience, and the ongoing work of healing—physically, mentally, and emotionally.

Because there are no symptoms in the early stages of pancreatic cancer “about 75 to 80 percent of patients are diagnosed in the later stages of the disease,” said Somashekar Krishna, MD, a James physician scientist who specializes in the early detection and screening of pancreatic cancer. Krishna and the team of pancreatic cancer experts at the James are using enhanced screening and artificial intelligence (AI) to better identify pre-cancerous cysts and cancerous tumors in the pancreas; and are the first in the world to use high-tech ablation techniques to attack and kill pancreatic cysts and tumors in a new clinical trial. Most pancreatic cancer tumors begin as pre-cancerous cysts and are most commonly found in people 60 and older. “For people in their 50s there is about a 10-percent prevalence, this doubles in people 60 to 70 to 20 percent and is 25 to 30 percent in people 70 to 80,” Krishna said, adding, “most are small and never grow and become cancerous.” Endoscopy procedures are used to better “see” these cysts and cancerous tumors, and the use of artificial intelligence is another tool to identify and determine the risk factor of pre-cancerous cysts. “The tip of the endoscopy probe can see even the tiniest structures in a very detailed manner, and we can pass a needle through the scope and do a biopsy and establish the risk,” Krishna said. Surgery is one option, but the procedure is quite invasive and not easily tolerated by older patient with other medical issues. “A new option is ablation, using heat, in a very precise and careful manner,” Krishna said. “We are the only ones doing this in the United States and have done this with nearly 30 patients in a clinical trial.” Krishna is determined to improve screening and treatment for pancreatic cancer and reduce the mortality rate. “Early in my career, 80 percent of patients diagnosed with pancreatic cancer did not make it more than a year,” he said. “We want to change these outcomes to intervene early and with better and better treatment options.”

Pancreatic cancer is notoriously difficult to treat, and about 90% of diagnosed patients die from the disease. A team at Memorial Sloan Kettering has been working to improve those outcomes by developing a new mRNA vaccine for pancreatic cancer.A few years ago, the team embarked on a small trial to test the vaccine's safety. Sixteen patients with pancreatic cancer received it, and even though it was a small study, the results were promising: Half the participants had an immune response, and in those patients the cancer hadn't relapsed after 18 months.This week, the team released a new study in Nature following those same patients, and found six out of eight who responded to the vaccine in the first study did not have their cancer return more than three years later.Joining host Flora Lichtman to talk about these results, and what they could mean for the future of cancer treatment, is study author and surgeon Dr. Vinod Balachandran, director of The Olayan Center for Cancer Vaccines at Memorial Sloan Kettering, based in New York City.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.  Subscribe to this podcast.
